Prime Minister Narendra Modi, speaking at a public gathering in Madhya Pradesh’s Betul, criticized the opposition’s alleged consideration of a one-year prime minister rotation within the INDIA bloc due to the inability to agree on a single PM face, as reported by various media outlets. Modi expressed concern over the potential instability such a proposal might bring, questioning the impact of having five prime ministers in five years on the country’s governance.
Modi derided the notion, likening it to “auctioning the PM’s chair,” and warned of its potential to disrupt the nation’s progress. He emphasized the importance of a stable leadership, contrasting his own ten-year track record with what he described as the opposition’s lack of a clear PM candidate.
As the election battle intensifies ahead of the second phase of voting on April 26, Modi accused the Congress party of proposing policies aimed at wealth redistribution, which he claimed would undermine economic stability. He criticized Congress’s alleged support for religion-based reservation and warned against what he perceived as attempts to appease specific voter demographics.
Further, Modi highlighted Congress’s purported intention to introduce inheritance tax, alleging that it would result in the confiscation of property from citizens. He referenced historical instances and statements to assert Congress’s support for such policies, despite recent attempts by the party to distance itself from certain remarks.
The prime minister’s remarks come amid a charged political atmosphere, with both major parties trading accusations and outlining contrasting visions for the country’s future. As the election date approaches, such rhetoric is expected to continue as each side seeks to sway voters with its agenda and promises.
